It's always nice to see people use their bikes the way they are meant to be used....

What an absolute spanner. That is seriously misleading and I got so annoyed when I read it that I reported him to eBay. :evil:0

Is that a stumpy frame? i thought they had a curved top tube?0

Two points I noticed:
1) "(maby biger bike thats what the tape messure said)" - surely if you were actually going to bid on this bike you'd want to know the exact size of it?
2) "im selling as its a bit to big for me well im 5ft-5 and i can just about reach the ground" - do you think we should tell him that people actually grow??
Oh, and his spelling is crap! (you can tell I've been off work all week - oh well back tomorrow0 -

I'm guessing hes around 17... his username would sugest he was born in '91. His spelling and presentation is awefull though, E-... could do better.
If that really is a stumpy someone should buy it and put it back to normal... save the poor thing from a fate worse than death.
Edit to fix my own typos :oops:0 -
There's no way that's a Stumpy of any description and certainly not an S-works.
That said I'd still give him a hundred nicker for it if Ifelt that way... :shock:0 -
Here's a 2007 Stumpy HT http://www.primera-bournemouth.co.uk/Template.aspx?prodID=1842 the frame doesn't even look vaguely similar. In fact I don't think it's anything from the 2007 Spesh catalogue.
I think I might ask a few questions."Swearing, it turns out, is big and clever" - Jarvis Cocker0 -
Nah that's definitely not a stumpy. There's some real stupid morons on eBay.0

You guys are too harsh, personally I'm loving the lilac and hot pink handgrips and plant pot bike stand!0
